Don't let him see this thread :D

What an extreme case, maybe you are right about 1-3-1, maybe it's the best against a team like that. I check his latest game, he did take a lot mid-range shots.

I think if you take care of your offense it shouldn't matter too much on the defense. He can't beat you with three players :)

Well Thank you kind citizen +1 for you.

I plan to play Look Inside against him since his inside players all suck. Its a very strange case though.. The last 3 or 4 games he hasn't even played 5 players, but he's been logging on everyday. Either he's really stupid, or hes preparing for me :O I also hope he doesnt buy a 30k Big man between now and tuesday, cause i looked at his latest transfers and he probably has about 2 million+ bucks in the bank right now...

He's not stupid, not at all. After checking his team history. He's just tanking in a strange way. (OK, maybe a little)

I wouldnt play 1-3-1. Especially if he plays LI. SFs can be very effective in a LI and if you play 1--3-1 he will tear you apart. What I would do is play M2M but LI on offense to exploit his weak interior. Make him pay on offense, instead of defense

From what I understand, look inside uses mostly driving against OD to find scoring opportunities. This is probably why he can run it effectively with only a PG, SG, and SF. I would think it would be advantageous to run a 3-2 or 1-3-1 to counteract the guards driving.

However, Lealster has a valid point that you should be able to make him pay on offense. While his outside defense will be tough to penetrate and score initially, you should dominate the boards and get many second chance points. A fast paced offense like look inside is definitely a good idea. Shot volume will be the key.
